Thank you all for being a member or friend of GMU-AAUP!

It's no secret that higher education in America has entered a period of crisis. Once-settled practices and norms that support faculty job security and free inquiry are now under political attack. And so far, university administrators are putting up precious little resistance.

As always, it is up to faculty and students to protect the value of a public education for the common good. For this reason, we are committing this semester to expanding our membership, strengthening connections between members, and mapping the resources we can bring to bear in our campaigns to protect, defend, and expand faculty governance and academic freedom.

It's time to build power! Please take a moment to tell us about the resources and connections you have that might help the chapter build power and win our campaigns. Thanks for your help!
